3 Parties with whom we share personal data
Our service providers, such as Norian and Microsoft Dynamics, may have access to personal data if the personal data is stored by the service provider or in any other way accessible to the provider according to their contract with us.

4 STORING OF PERSONAL DATA
We will not store personal data longer than necessary for obtaining the purpose of the processing.
Under the Norwegian Accounting Act we are directed to store certain accounting documents for a specific amount of time. When personal data is stored for a specific amount of time in order to fulfil a predefined purpose, we make sure that the personal data is exclusively used for that purpose during that period.
5 Your rights
You hold the rights to any personal data that pertains to you. Your specific rights depend upon the circumstances in question.
Retraction of consent: If you have consented to receiving our newsletter, you may at any time retract you consent.

If you have consented to any other processing of personal data, you may also at any time contact us and retract your consent to this processing.
Request access to information: You have the right to request information on the personal data pertaining to you we have on file, as long as this does not conflict with the duty of confidentiality. In order to ensure that personal data is handed over to the right individual, we may require a written motion for access to information, or that ID is confirmed in another way.
Request correction or deletion of information: You may request that we correct incorrect information regarding you or that we delete your personal data. We will to the best of our abilities comply with a request of deleting personal data, but we cannot comply if there are strong grounds for not deleting it, for example if we need to store the data for documentation reasons.
Data portability: In some instances, you may receive access to personal data you have provided us with in order to transfer the data to another company in a machine-readable format. If technology allows, it may in some cases be possible to transfer the data directly from us to the other company.
